“Be like snow – cold, but beautiful.”

I’m personally more struck by visual things more than musical.

I suppose my approach to religion is like my approach to music – I take what I want and leave the rest.

When I was young I felt really overwhelmed and confused by the desire not to end up in an office, doing something I didn’t believe in.

Being human is difficult. Some people make it more difficult than others. I was one of those people.

I’ve got a war in my mind.

Life is beautiful, but you don’t have a clue.

The angels decided to shine on me for a little while.

Taking time for your art is taking time for yourself.

I never stopped writing about what was actually going on in my life. There’s nothing to hide.

I love to sing and I really love to write, but in terms of being onstage, I’m not that comfortable.

Even if you’re the best singer in the world, there’s a good chance no one will ever hear you.

When I found somebody who I fell in love with, it made me feel different than I felt the rest of the day.

When you’re a gypsy at heart, it probably suits you to be traveling.

When you’re an introvert like me and you’ve been lonely for a while, and then you find someone who understands you, you become really attached to them. It’s a real release.

I’m interested in the gorgeous side of life, but also familiar with the dark side too.

No one compares to you, but there’s no you, except in my dreams tonight.

A child’s world is fresh and new and beautiful, full of wonder and excitement. It is our misfortune that for most of us that clear-eyed vision, that true instinct for what is beautiful, is dimmed and even lost before we reach adulthood.

I want you to know, that you deserve the best. You’re beautiful.

Desperate for answers, I go searching in the stars. I ask them: on a scale of one to catastrophe, how beautiful would they say we are?

Sometimes, a defeat can be more beautiful and satisfying than certain victories. The English have a point in insisting that it matters not who won or lost, but how you played the game.

My smile is my favorite part of my body. I think a smile can make your whole body. I want women to know that it’s ok. That you can be whatever size you are and be beautiful inside and out.

I used every color on my palette to bring you back to life. Now you paint the most beautiful rainbows in someone else’s skies.

I hope that my work will encourage self expression in others and stimulate the search for beauty and creative excitement in the great world around us.

I believe in beauty. I believe in stones and water, air and soil, people and their future and their fate.
